The test only fails in my branch. My code doesn’t go anywhere near that test. Someone mentions Redis. In the distance, a wolf howls.

@jgaskins great timing!

First year I’m missing #SeaGL in a while and I’m cranky about it. Too much stuff to do.

@genehack Likewise! When do you go home? Maybe a beverage and sticker handoff before then?

hackers.town: 2019-11-16 Sat 11:03

@genehack well, you’re not wrong. I’ll just have to make a point of a leisurely Oregon trip when the dust settles.

Finally tried C-p Quick Open (in VS Code) and yeah okay I see why people like it.

SHOCKED I AM SHOCKED TO FIND MONKEY PATCHING IN PYTHON CODE

after you people spent all those years judging my Perl and Ruby code.

I CAN’T EVEN FIND WHERE YOU PUT THE MONKEY

update: I found the monkey and it told me if I’d read the Django docs I would have recognized a RelatedManager and worked my way back from there.

So I flung poop at it.

Took about a day to identify and change the one line needed to fix the test bug that my one line change exposed. Turns out it was lupus. I mean redis.

hackers.town: 2019-11-16 Sat 14:56

Really it wasn’t redis specifically. Just - you know - caching. Really good. So good you can forget it’s there. Which is the worst thing to do with a cache.

hackers.town: 2019-11-16 Sat 14:58

I mean. The worst thing you can do with a cache by accident. Loads of stuff you can do on purpose that would be worse.

But that would be wrong.

Whatever they’re reading sounds way more exciting than reality. Don’t make them stop now!

I clearly have much to learn (ex: maybe use the bigger sketchbook) but this looks neat.
